Abstract
Synthetic biology is an emerging technology that uses the principles of physics, chemistry, mathematics, and biology. Synthetic biology is the technology enabler that could be applied across all fields such as agricultural, food, health, chemical, and industrial manufacturing sectors. In this chapter, several applications of synthetic biology across all disciplines are delineated, and challenges associated with the implementation of synthetic biology technologies are addressed in detail.
